Lecturer accused of sexually harassing 19-year-old student in Bengaluru; HOD Sanjeev on the run!

A 19-year-old BCA student has filed an FIR against her department HOD, alleging sexual harassment after being invited to his home under the pretext of a meal. The accused lecturer, Sanjeev, is currently absconding.

A shocking case has rocked one of the city’s reputed private colleges after a 19-year-old BCA student filed a complaint accusing her Head of Department, Sanjeev, of sexual harassment. The incident reportedly occurred on September 25, but came to light only recently after the victim approached the Tilak Nagar Police Station, where an FIR has now been registered.

According to the FIR, the lecturer allegedly invited the student to his home for lunch, claiming he wanted to “help her with academics.” However, when she arrived, she found no one else present. The student alleged that Sanjeev then behaved inappropriately and attempted to force her into sexual activity. Shocked and traumatized, the student managed to escape and later confided in her friends before filing a formal complaint.

Preliminary investigations reveal that Sanjeev had been mentoring the student due to her academic struggles and had allegedly been messaging her frequently under the guise of “personal guidance.” Police sources say the lecturer used this trust to lure her to his residence.
